What I heard from a buddy today almost seems unreal. He works for a site contractor, and works with someone who is also very interested in antique farm equipment. Anyway this guy he works with just happened to be driving by a place and saw a someone outside whacking antique engines with a sledge hammer. Seems scrap is up in the area and the man just wanted them broken up to move them easier. Well he walked away with 6 stationary engines for $50 each. Also found out he has a IH TD-6 that he was going to scrap, that ran 2 years ago at the least- he wants $500 bucks for it! My buddy really likes the old crawlers, and I told him for the money you really cant go wrong. If he doesnt want it i'll post back because im sure someone does. Im only 19 and I hate to see these antiques sitting out rusting to nothing, but it seems like every piece I ask about is worth an arm and leg to the owner(none that i have asked about were running, pretty poor shape). Any tricks or suggestions that I might try before i ask about any more equipment? Ferguson65
